She is listed as having birthed 0 children, but they are listed with a son: Thomas W., born Mar 1900, 2 months old, born in Arizona, his father in Michigan, and mother in Illinois.

2. Census in 1910 in Kingman, Mohave, AZ. ² Thomas Irvine [handwriting on census page is hard to read so it was indexed as Irvine instead of Devine], keeper hotel, 41, was living with wife Amy, 37. They were married 11 years and she had birthed 2 children, both alive in 1910: Thomas, 10; and Andrew, 4. Thomas was born in Michigan, and his parents in Ireland.
